Normally I rent the equipment from my ISP but I hate eero (which is the only option for renting) and want to get away from it because it's only controlled via apps and I don't do apps. I need som...
Yes but they only have eero and I do not want eero. They do not offer any other options. So I have to buy my own equipment.
Ok.
(1) Does your ONT have ethernet out to the Eero?
(2) If it does, do you know the max ethernet speed (1 gbps, 2.5, or perhaps even 10)?
Above you said you had coax coming into the house - if the ISP is using fiber, then that could be Moca. Another place where the details matter.
The setup we have right now is with a provider who I will call ISP #0, who has fiber at the street that is run into one of those green utility pedestals outside in the yard, and is then converted to coax, and the coax comes from that green pedestal outside into the home and connects to a modem, and then eero connects to the modem. We therefore do not have an ONT, just the modem and eero. I do not know the max ethernet speed; it would just be limited by whatever the coax can deliver. I know we are not using moca anywhere in the house, but I couldn't tell you what is going on inside the green utility pedestal in the yard.

Are you planning to change ISPs?
Can you give us the details on the modem model?
